Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa says he thanks the country after the United States removes Syria from its list of state sponsors of terrorism. Both outlets report the statement as a reaction to the U.S. decision.
The removal is also described by RTE as a significant sanctions-relief step, linking the change to broader economic and diplomatic consequences. Al Jazeera focuses on the president’s message of gratitude to Syrians, while RTE emphasizes the policy impact of the designation change. Overall, the accounts present the U.S. action as a major shift in Syria’s status and indicate the president publicly frames it in national terms.
The two reports do not conflict on the core facts: the U.S. decision removes Syria from the terror list, and al-Sharaa responds by publicly praising the outcome and, in RTE’s framing, highlights its role in sanctions relief.
